[Rivet] Setting bin edges in rivet

[Hendrik Hoeth]

Hi Steve,

Thus spake Stephen (sbieniek at hep.ucl.ac.uk):

Have a look at include/Rivet/Analysis.hh. One option is to use

  bookHistogram1D(const string& hname, size_t nbins, double lower, double upper);

The other option is

  bookHistogram1D(const string& hname, const vector<double>& binedges);

For developing the analysis probably any binning is fine, and as soon as
you have the data you can switch to the automatic booking.

Cheers,

   Hendrik
